Designed for all pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students, Ervin Early Learning Center works to prepare students for elementary school. Kindergarten students have transferred from sister schools in the districts or are previous Ervin Early Learning Center pre-kindergartners.

This is a major initiative of the Hickman Mills School District which is receiving extensive attention including a Kansas City Star editorial.

Ervin students in the LINC program will learn and have fun in fitness classes, music classes, introduction to music, introduction to chess, and more.

Ervin Early Learning Center is located at 10530 Greenwood Rd. LINC Caring Communities also supports the newly opened Freda Markley Early Childhood Center in Hickman Mills with educational opportunities for preschoolers.
